Here’s what we’re keeping an eye on today, and here’s how to watch college football this weekend (scroll down for live updates).
No. 10 LSU at No. 17 Vanderbilt (-1.5), Noon ET, ABC
The Tigers have won 10 straight over the Commodores; Vanderbilt has a chance to win for the first time in the series since a 24-21 victory in 1990. The Commodores have had an off week to prepare for the game following their loss to No. 6 Alabama in Week 7.
No. 5 Ole Miss at No. 9 Georgia (-7.5), 3:30 ET, ABC
Trinidad Chambliss took over as Ole Miss’ starter in Week 3 and hasn’t looked back. He’s even in the Heisman conversation now. Are the Bulldogs a good team, or are they title contenders? This matchup could show us plenty.

No. 11 Tennessee at No. 6 Alabama (-7.5), 7:30 ET, ABC
The Volunteers are Alabama’s fourth consecutive ranked opponent after victories against Georgia, Vanderbilt and Missouri. Ty Simpson is our midseason Heisman winner after his performance through the first six games of the season.
No. 20 USC at No. 13 Notre Dame (-9.5), 7:30 ET, NBC
USC’s got a long losing streak in South Bend; the Trojans are looking for their first win at Notre Dame since 2011. Given the way USC bossed Michigan, this could be their best chance in years.

No. 23 Utah at No. 15 BYU (+3.5), 8 ET, Fox
The Holy War is here. It’s the first test of the season for BYU and freshman QB Bear Bachmeier. And it’s a very heated rivalry too. The Utes will surely be looking for payback after a controversial Cougars win in Salt Lake City last year.
